Sarah Palin Refudiates 5-Minaret Plan for New York

New York’ta Beş Minare

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - Given her penchant for proliferating nonexistent threats and non-English vocabulary, it comes as somewhat of a surprise that the Nov. 5 release of the Turkish film “New York’ta Beş Minare”—“Five Minarets in New York”—has not prompted any warnings on Twitter by former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Warnings about how five minarets cause even more unnecessary heart-stabbing pain throughout the heartland than does a Ground Zero mosque that is neither a mosque nor located at Ground Zero.

The action film features Turkish pop star Mustafa Sandal and American actor Danny Glover, among others, and according to its website “underlines America’s paranoia with the Islamic world after 9/11”.

As for relevant history that might prove useful in Palin’s Twitter lectures to Muslims, Sandal released an album in 1994 entitled Suç BendeIt’s My Fault.
